Wellness

What set me on the production of my first book, Wellness, was an article about the Botulinum Toxin, which is better known as "Botox".

The origins of this toxin and its potential use as a chemical weapon inspired me to draw down my associations immediately. The subtitle of my book, The First Price, refers to the obligation of "feeling good", an atmosphere which surrounds us and pretends to offer us all opportunities in our glossy world. If you feel good, if you preserve your female body in perfect condition and you bring it close to the ideal form, you will win the first price! In this respect, you are put in competition with other women and the measuring that follows leads to the subject of my second art book, Reflexzonen.
